Hot video

Screen time

Clarke's newfound romance with Finn is threatened, while Octavia suffers a blow to the head and wakes up to find a Grounder watching her on the post-apocalyptic drama "The 100" at 9 p.m. EDT tonight on The CW.

Worst of the day

Don't diss a dead guy. Ice Cube took to Twitter to moan that Paul Walker and Vin Diesel won MTV duo award for "Fast & Furious 6" on a sympathy vote. The rapper-turned-actor said he and Kevin Hart should have won for "Ride Along." He said, "We was robbed" and "Shame on you MTV." Not too classy.
